At our cross-border friendly against Edinburgh on Friday February 9, we’ve got plenty going on in support of the amazing charity.

Pre-match, Newcastle Falcons players are hosting a charity quiz night with all profits going to My Name’5 Doddie.

The event starts at 6pm in the East Stand’s 1877 bar prior to the 7:45pm kick-off and tickets are available to book now.

Priced at £15 and including a £5 drinks voucher, you can secure you place by clicking HERE.

Please note that entry into the match is not included in this price.

Newcastle Falcons have also released an exclusive hat inspired by Doddie Weir himself.

Featuring his iconic number five in the My Name’5 Doddie tartan, the limited-edition charity hat also includes imagery of the Tyne Bridge. 

The hat is available to pre-order for £19 by clicking HERE and with every purchase, a donation is made to the foundation.  

The hats will be available to collect at the fixture against Edinburgh and if you are unable to attend, they will be posted out afterwards.

Please note that any hats pre-ordered won’t be available prior to the fixture and it will be communicated closer to the time if any are made available to purchase on the day.

At the fixture, there will also be opportunities to donate through bucket collections situated throughout the stadium bowl.

We ask that, if you are able to, to please donate whatever you can to his amazing charity so that they can continue to do their incredible work.
